Subject: RE: BS: zodiac/star signs.. do you believe?
LH..I sort of resent(intellectually, not emotionally) the suggestion that 'faith' is being employed by both sides. The whole point of one side is NOT to rely on faith & belief, and to just define & dismiss that view with some linguistic twist and say that all 'opinion' or 'conclusion' is just one form of faith or belief is not only inaccurate, but unfair. I work very hard at formulating my attitudes and (often tentative) opinions based on logic, as much 'fact' as I can glean, and non-ambiguous language. It's kinda disheartening to have it all classified as "just another type of faith". That's another example of what I mention over & over as 'equivocation' in the use of a word.
